I need a new bin for the bullitt. I broke the hdx 27gal in a week of use and don’t have time to build a custom ply one yet. What’s tougher than the hdx thing and also cheap? ---

I carry a lot of loose parts/tools so a rigid box is best. I wish my use case matched the dyed in the wool bag. ---

measure the bike and mounts and sketch the pieces - I can draw it in cad in about 7 minutes so you can send it to one of the laser cutter companies and lace it together with paracord or zipties ---

I can do this as well, just was hoping for something more immediate and also like $30. Eventually I’ll be building a nice plywood box with a door for the doggo. ---

This doesn’t solve today’s problem of a broken box, but Shorts and I talked about this a few years back - we thought that a softsided box that vertically locks into place on a couple of pins on the cargo bed would work really well. I think maybe @drwelby sketched something for the idea? Basically the idea was to have something that closes firmly, locks in place, but is relatively easy to move on and off the bike. Without, you know, going all the way into Urban Arrow’s very very overbuilt solutions ---

I used a Sterilite bin for years. It was flimsy soft rubber and I cut holes in it for mounting and stuff with a razor knife. I think that the squishyness of the bin was actually helpful in it not breaking on me. I think I paid $11 at the local hardware store. ---

I got passed by a super 73 this morning - standard poodle sitting on the saddle in front of the rider doing real puppy paws off the front of the handlebars ---

> [@iwillbe](#): > > Urban Arrow’s very very overbuilt solutions Those things are bananas! The canopy thing has like 25 zippers and a bunch of different panels and openings and just looks so awkward and annoying to use and also each one of those complications is a failure point. I love the kid canopy thing I got for the badger box. It consists of three carbon tent poles, three pieces of clear vinyl, two grommets and two little clippie things to secure it. It’s super simple and works super well and smalls can still see really well which doesn’t seem to be the case with either the offical Bullitt offering or the UA thing.

Blaq packs. I ordered it from [Splendid Cycles](https://www.splendidcycles.com/products-1). I think I’m gonna get the cargo cover from them too. It’ll be good for cargo use and for winter kid use too I think. ![image](https://cdn.tarck.cc/original/3X/8/2/82f1b18da550f97a0102200406c35f3553b15b74.jpeg) ![image](https://cdn.tarck.cc/original/3X/5/6/56433938fad198af86c92bd384bc489314c23d89.jpeg) ---

Ahhhh ok I got to the Badger page and just blundered through. I’ll get at Blaq for a better rain canopy ---

I remember seeing that too. I think it was the style that is held together with a come along strap which is kludgy but less so than a toddler in a bin from the hardware store I guess. ---
